Hello Friends and Family!
This
week we had a great week! We taught 21 lessons and have done so much with our
ward. The trust is starting to be there. We're still struggling to find service
and doing our best to find it in the community but it just isn't happening the
way we need it too. We were told to go to the Chamber of Commerce to ask for
service opportunities and once we can find that we will be better. But we've
decided to just go and do service for the ward members or even go service
tracting. That seems to have worked really well for the Carmel missionaries and
we're going to go do the same. It'll be nice to get out and shovel walkways. Get
our hands on some shovels and GO TO WORK. Once it starts coming down and
anything we can go and do, we'll do it.
I'm so excited for this week. It's Thanksgiving! That means preparing for Elder Nash to arrive as well as spending time with our members. We've been invited to 3 dinners and we're STOKED. This is Sister Eralie's first Thanksgiving as a missionary and she's pumped. It's been a great week last week. We went to the Temple and enjoyed a morning session, the first snowfall of the season hit, (I love tracting in the winter. More families are home staying warm (than out and about in the cold.) and we're going to perform in Sacrament meeting for the members. It's been a wonderful week and we're really trying to get out there and tract more. I'm super happy. :) I love Fishers.
I'm super excited for Lisa and Cheyenne. They both want to be baptized and more realistically Lisa doesn't want to do it alone. We're hoping to start teaching her daughters this week and get them on board too. She wants her family to be involved. Cheyenne wants to change so badly. She's going through a lot especially as an 18 year old and we're helping her see how she can do it through Christ. It's been a wonderful change and the Spirit is always SO strong. It was last night too at dinner with Carl and Linda. They both want the New Member Lessons (her missionaries didn't teach them to her) and we really emphasized Joseph Smith and the major role he played in bringing the Gospel to the world once again. It was amazing. :) I'm so happy we get to go out and be doing more with our members and this area. It's needed some much deserved TLC and we've been seeing that and have been doing our best to plan and take care of this area. :) It's been a good week. :)
Love,
Sister Halverson
